We buy our 35mm Dolby Digital trailers from a retailer here in Sweden and we pay 500 SEK ($60) per trailer. I beleive there are other places and retailers selling these trailers at a cheaper price. Can anyone recommend any? What do you pay for them?

American Cinema Equipment in Portland, Oregon advertises the Dolby Digital trailers for $29. on their website: www.cinequip.com

Dolby offers these trailers for free if you have their equipment installed and they can verify it.

Well, they say they provide them free.. I ordered some 5 months ago, and all I have gotten so far is a letter saying they'd fill my order shortly...

Don't worry Jim, the trailers Dolby offer now pretty much suck. The City is probably the best they have right now. And the newer ones like Rain and Aurora are pathetic, each with the "Dolby Jingle" at the end, which sounds kind of lame. However, one of the "dings" in the Dolby Jingle will come from the center surround in EX mode! Behold the power of EX!

Wow... 3 grand for one ding in the rear!
